How to Enable Caps Lock on Your iPhone

When I got my iPhone, it was love at first use. Aside from that pesky dark spot on the camera lens, I’ve only had a few minor complaints. One of the most frustrating has been the apparent lack of a caps lock function on the virtual keyboard.

As it turns out, the caps lock functionality is a user-selectable setting that is (for whatever reason) set to “off” by default. Curious as to how you can enable caps lock? Simply follow these instructions:

Select “Settings” from your home screen

Select “General“

Select “Keyboard“

Toggle “Enable caps lock” to “ON“

That’s it. Now all you have to do is double tap the shift button and it will turn blue. This indicates that the caps lock has been activated. Simply tap it again to deactivate.
